Final Battle Scene
The final battle scene was exciting and quite a sight to see. The tension to get to Ivan Vanko was just building to a good level. But when Iron Man and War Machine get to fight Vanko it is over quickly. True, both of the heroes have to fight a good fight. But it seems to be over quickly. That is the only part of the Final Battle Scene that I didn’t like. That being said, it is really the most important thing to me in that scene.
Ivan Vanko/Whiplash as the Villain
That man was a great villain. He came complete with a history connecting himself to Iron Man, an interesting way of looking at things, and willing to do anything to get to Iron Man. This was a villain I could really get to telling that he meant business. The weapons he has (a pair of electric whips) are very fitting to his character.
Iron Man Dying
I knew that Iron Man wouldn’t die but it was interesting seeing how he reacted to it. The way he was defenseless to it made the storyline intriguing. Some things he did wrong but they were realistic. The only thing that made me want to scream during this point was that he should tell a friend. But, of course, that would take away from the tension of the situation.
Final Thoughts
This is a very fun movie to watch and it is done well. The characters are very interesting to follow through. There wasn’t one character that I felt was getting on my nerves too much. I haven’t seen the first movie so I don’t have to worry about comparing the two.

The Terminator (Part 2)
The Terminator is an iconic character and with good reason.
If that version does not work, try this one:

Talking about your religion to me is fine. Pushing your religion on me is a totally different matter.

What TV show character do you relate to the most?
Derek Reese from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles because he is really given a lot of crap and goes through hardships. Also Peter Bishop from Fringe because I feel like I'm from somewhere else and have issues with my Dad.
2013 is the End (jashycam 20)
The Host (by Stephenie Meyer) is being made into a movie. Here is my reaction to the news.
